James

Left in a ditch with his brother, our puppy “James” is ready for a family to call his own! James is an outgoing and smart 5-6 month-old pup who’s likely a mix of American pitbull terrier, bull terrier, cattle dog, staffy, and/or other similar breeds—giving him a lot of character and charm! James is a moderate-energy stocky guy who’s still figuring out just how strong he is. He currently weighs around 30-35lbs and will likely grow to about 40-50 lbs when full-grown. James has a big heart and loves interacting with people, but because he’s teething hard and working on not mouthing or nipping when he’s excited, a home with kids aged 11-12 and up would be best. He’s incredibly smart and shows some herding instincts, making him an active pup who also needs regular mental stimulation (ie. kongs, flirt pole, snuffle mats, other games/tricks..etc). He’s also very food-motivated, which can help make training a breeze! In late July, Scout's Street Smart Rescue received a distressing call about a puppy being thrown onto I-40, a busy highway. Determined to find any siblings, the rescue quickly spread the word. Not long after, the same (or a very similar) vehicle was seen dumping two more puppies—James and Trooper—into a ditch near a bar. While we can’t say for certain, we believe these three pups are related, given their shared tragic start. James gets along well with other medium to large dogs and would do well with a canine buddy, but this is not required and he would do just as well living as a single dog. No kitties for mister James as he is just too much puppy for them. He’s happy to hang out on his raised bed in the yard or relax in his kennel. Give him a chew, and he’ll happily kick back and begin gnawing away. He’s a total love bug who enjoys pets, butt pats, and just keeping an eye on his humans. James is eager to find a family that will help him grow into the amazing dog he’s meant to be!
